angel of retribution - album
 

I got this album a while ago.. and i love it.. but i hear everyone bitching about it.. so i really want to know why everyoen does or does not like this album.. ???
thanks!

I've never heard anyone bitch about it.

Me too, but I think that's mainly for the reason that Rob Halford finally came back!!!:tramp:
Talking about the album, I think it's pretty good.Not near there best, but still worthy of "fitting in" with the rest!!!I think "Judas Rising" is alright along with a few other tracks!!!"Deal With The Devil" is probally the best all around track on that disc, I.M.O.It's pretty cool with good guitars, a hardrockin' beat and Rob Halford's controlled, yet somewhat harsh voice!!!It's most likely my favorite track on the whole disc except for, maybe, the song "Lochness."Lochness is a very interesting and creative track for the band to do at this time in their musical careers!!!It's almost shocking to hear them finally get together to regroup and so quickly come up with something like that!!!I'm not sure, but some of these tracks may've been started years back and never completed, until now."Lochness" is a great track to end the album with as well...
...It brings the album to a close, making you want to listen to it over again later on!!!
I'll just say that I didn't get the album right when it came out-I got it a little later on and believe that most Judas Priest fans having even a little bit of an interest in it already got it.If ya haven't purchased it yet, it is recommended, although I loved the band, Halford's work and all of those musicians are technically excellent for sure!!!I would love to see the band come back together for atleast 1 or 2 more albums, even if Halford is also staying with Judas Priest!!!
Halford and Judas Priest...
...The best of both worlds as far as I'm concerned!!!:D

i think its a nuts album.. i'm not the being priest fan in the world.. but i do like them alot.. you can all shake your heads at me and say i'm not a real fan but in my opinion and i don't know why, but this is my favorite priest album.. just hit home for me... its a gear album in my thoughts :o)

but with it being compared to the rest of there albums it is by far super different and i can undestand why alot of people just heard a few songs and went "wtf". but i still think a true priest fan would give the album a chane.. take it for what it is... RETIRNED WITH A ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!!!THEY CAME BACK!!!!

I thoguth it was a great album and somene else I knwo that isn't even nearly as into metal as myself even he thought it was great and now he's listening to their older stuff too, and he comes from a punk background or that's the impression I usually get..
But yeah it was one of the best metal albums in at least the last 5 years, possibly 10, finally a reunited group that didn't put outa total ****(e) album

thats awesome how that album being nothing really like there older stuff acn gget people listening to it.. then bring them bakc into there older stuff.. i think priest should get more fans because of this album


i think i would go with 10 years.. because until i heard this album i was finding myself not very impressed with much metal stuff coming out.. :laughing:

yeah same here, when black and death metal were stil a lot more fresh then they ware now those genres really got my hyped about metal but this is definetily the first more 'mainstream' metal one taht's gotten me this excieted..
I'm not totally sure if he's completely unfamiliar with the old stuff but the way he held uip an older Greatest Hits one the other day I was just like 'oh yeah I remember that one' ;)

Yeah, I think the album is pretty good. Not nearly as good as Painkiller or some of their older stuff, but definitely worth having. Priest are so talented.

jusdas priest are by far one of the greatest bands to ever happen in the music industry.. and for them to continue to make albums just amazes me.. THANK GOD SOMETHING OTHER THEN THE STONES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, it's great that they re-united and are still making albums. Most music today is pretty crap.

and most reunions are either crap, or short-lived at ebst..

Woot judas priest rules. But painkiller is there best album. He is the painkiller this is the pain killer. I'm so ****ing wasted.

Painkiller is better, but I don't think I'd ever call it their best!!!:nono: Practically all of their albums seem to have atleast a few good tracks on them, ya know?:)

I agree with Electric Eye that Painkiller is their best album, although I agree that all their albums are good.

It's an okay album, but I'll stick with Painkiller.

Lochness really draaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaags. Not that good sludgie stoner-type drag, the other kind.

i think on all of there albums there are at last 3 great songs.. with writing, singing, and style.. :o)

To each his own!!!;) In closing, I've gotta say that "angel..." is good, but "painkiller" is/was better...
...why complain about "angel...", though, ya know?:whythis:

^ Yeah, I agree.:)

I rather like it. But then I'm a Rob Halford fan and was very happy to hear him back with Judas Priest. It's not their best album or anything but it's great to hear them again.

yea i'm a bid fan of Rob Halford.. his voice is still amazing.. wanna say it surprised me but it didn't really... but i love love love this album!!.. the writing was amazing on it!!! :o) :laughing: ;)

What else can you expect from Rob Halford...
...After all, Rob Halford is the "Metal God"!!!:D :yeah:

shall we :bowdown:

No he's really not.
Didn't he sleep with a man once?
Not metal.

he is *** and came out years ago.. but really what does him being *** have to do with anything.. the music is great..

your pretty much a ignorant fool just for bringing up that fact that he slept with a *** guy.. *slaps you in the face*

Yeah, im a homophobe, I hate homosexual activity.

Most homophobes have a secret desire to be in a homosexual relationship.

Just thought you might be interested.

^ He was being sarcastic my dear...;)

Judas Priest = sex. I love power metal, I love them. Angel of Retribution is wicked, they prove they still have it in them even as grampas.

So was I:D

*Alexisonfire is secretly wanting *** man sex!!!!!!!!!*

:laughing:

What, so you just figured out that he is G A Y today or do you just hate Judas Priest?:crazy: Rob Halford is G A Y, but listening to music by Judas Priest or any of the other bands he was in doesn't make you a queer!!!

By the way, incase you didn't already know, JUDAS PRIEST KICKS ASS!!!

Your an idiot.
1. i was joking around
2. i dont give a fuck what your sexuality is
3. i like judas priest.

^ *Only cares that he likes Judas Priest...* :D

Yeah, he's really gotta watch out now, since he listened to some Judas Priest.........You know, he might actually get a little too much "Metal Up His Ass" because of that!!!:laughing:

That was Metallica not Priest.

Duh, it's Metallica, ya tool!!!:nono: I was just laughing about all the G A Y comments and talkin' about "metal up his ass" because of all the G A Y comments, understand?

^ Dude you just needed to say "my bad".

I guess you got offended/upset by it somehow?
First of all, it wasn't my bad, it was more like your bad, asinine "comeback", ya see?I knew Metallica "invented" that, but it was used as a "joke" in this thread!!!Not to talk about Metallica or any other band, understand...
...Geez, why do I even ask?I know you still don't!!!:finger: :crazy:

You are quite annoying, all that needed to be said was my bad or You're right. Not correcting him about your poorly played out joke. I really try to ignore you but it is hard when each and every post you make oozes ignorance and stupidity.

The only real thing that I understand is that you would have to be one of the most irritating c0cks that has ever breathed!

You sir, are a waste of skin.

Look at YOU, ya childish di ckhead!!!:yikes:

"Another one bites the dust"...ha ha ha ha!!!Grow up ya spineless crybabies and learn that you made a asinine mistake all along, not I...ha ha ha ha!!!

Just wondering,youngsters...do you enjoy getting :offtopic: all the time, End Of Story(?)!!!:finger: :laughing:
